Biography
My research concerns models and methods of kinetic theory, with particular focus on applications to biological and social sciences. The aim of my research is to investigate the role of microscopic interactions and their impact on the collective aggregate dynamics through classical tools of kinetic theory, such as hydrodynamic limits, asymptotic behavior, and entropy decay.
